Tragedy

A tragedy has befallen me. I have lost something very dear to my heart. I cannot find my Dr. Pepper chap stick. It has been missing since yesterday. My lips are burning with desire and I have nothing to quench the thirst which rages. Sure I could go to the store and get a brand new chap stick, but that would mean I had given up hope of ever finding my long lost friend. What will I do? How can my lips ever survive the devastation?
